As I reading on filesystem algorithms and principles [bach 86 and mckusick 96], I am tempted to try my hand on a free partition. From my understanding, I should be using the partition as a character device for raw i/o in order to avoid the current filesystem overhead (/dev/rwd0s3). From that point, I've been using the code from /usr/src/sys/msdosfs in order to get something going at first... but this has shown to be an exhausting task. I keep running into dependencies and such which make it seem impossible to implement. Perhaps I have taken a wrong turn at Albuquerque, so I'd appreciate if anyone could give a hint to get me up and running.
